So one of my buddies ended up actually over torquing the crankshaft sprocket bolt, and cracked the balance shaft sprocket. We had a very hard time taking off the sprockets and we were left to find that the crank shaft "stub" seems to be pushed back making a right-angle triangle vs a flat...

Hey guys,Well I'm finally getting around to do my first timing belt job (engine still in the car) and I've been doing a ton of research in reading and watching videos. But I just wanted to consult to make sure I got everything right.Anyway, my lovely stretched and edge-cut timing belt is...

So today when I was just about to leave for school, I found my self unable to unlock the door. Although the key would slide in, it would only turn left to lock.... And I knew the door was stuck... Again. So I tried the passenger side. Door unlocked, but the door was just as stubborn as the...

For the most part, a stock MAF will most likely be more than sufficient for your setup.For me, one of the benefits is running blow-through. Yes, this means you can vent properly, but if you plan on running high boost, you'll probably end up blowing a coupler off every now and then. With draw...

It could be your ECU... It went out when I was driving and literally shut off on the freeway... It wouldn't even roll start.IMG 0848 - YouTubeIMG 0851 - YouTubeMine was a 1g. I'm not sure if the 2g's do the same thing, but a small indicator to check for a healthy ECU is that the...

If you open up your hood and have your car idle and you rev it up a bit and you see some smoke coming out, the turbo seals are blown and burning oil. You'd also be seeing smoke coming out of the exhaust.

Installing an EPROM ECU won't give you any tuning or performance benefits... It'd behave just like any other ECU. Getting link or a chip for your ECU is what gives you a tune. If you're stock, leave it be. You don't have to worry about tuning for now.

If it's completely stock, I would just take out the AFC.Also, you shouldn't be tuning "seat-of the pants" method. Although things may "sound good" and "feel good" you have no idea if you're running rich or lean. This will lead to poor gas milage and poor performance... You're better off...

check the classifieds and also freelancer services. Search for "TurboAnything" He does all my ECU work. He's local in my area and his prices are very good.If you need it right away, you can try a local TV or electronics repair shop. I wouldn't pay over 50 bucks for recapping services...

You can get a chip for any size injectors...When I got my chip for my 880cc and set my MAF-T for stock injectors it would run pig rich. If its not a boost leak, and it's doing it in boost, it could be that you're running too rich. You'll also might want to upgrade to bigger wires and try new...

Don't get me wrong, you're definitely going to need to log, but logging with a laptop is a little bit more difficult to get up and running....Basically what I mean is that you'll actually have better luck trying to tune with an OLDER laptop. You'd want XP (from my experiences, you can't just...

you can go to the forums on 1glink.com and check out the forums. Also you can email Eric Kosek (who runs 1glink) and is very friendly. He's local in my area, so he hooked me up a good deal.Honestly, just pick up a palm IIIc from him and call it a day. I was trying to figure out how to make...

Sure the GM MAF wasn't originally designed as a blow-through but it simply as accurate as a draw-through. This is a different argument. You're going to have your own opinion backed up with your own experiences. Same applies to me. My experiences is that if you take two different cars with the...

hey guys,I ended up getting a chip to help compensate for the injectors. Still a pain in the ass to tune, but it's a lot better. I'm sure I could of gotten it to work, but the way it was going, the MAF-T was tuned at nearly 150cc's less (had it around 700-730cc) to get it to run decent...

I have nearly the same exact setup in the same situation and I just did this last weekend...I got a 90 and I just put in a 91-94 ECU with eprom for PTE 880cc injector compensation with revised timing, 8k rev limit, etc.First of all, you're going to want to keep the MAF-T. The chip...
